Chapter 2: The Persecution of the Imperated Son (14)
Li Cefeng curled up quietly in the cell, waiting for the dawn with his eyes open. There was a pungent musty smell in the cold, damp air, which made him sneeze frequently.
I don't know if the Yun brothers escaped, and I don't know if Guan Da was poisoned......
He carefully recalled the previous events, but he couldn't figure out the clues.
When he first came to Luoyang, he had no enemies and no new grudges, how could he work the two major gangs in Luoyang, one wanted to kill him and the other to arrest him.
If he was to be used to blackmail his father and brother for money or official positions, it seems that he should not be imprisoned in official prisons.
I don't know how long it has been since I thought about it repeatedly.
I only heard a "clang", and the iron gate of the entrance not far away was opened, and a group of people walked in.
Walking in the front was a fat man who looked like a cell boss, nodding and carrying a lantern, and from time to time he glanced back at the person behind him, with a flattering face.
They were followed by a group of prison guards and a young man in fine clothes.
Although the young man looked younger than the people around him, his expression was quite arrogant, and the people around him even gathered respectfully around him.
The appearance and figure are also very thoughtful, but the legs are lame, and the walk is shaking, and it looks very laborious.
"Cousin, don't come unharmed......"
The lame young man walked to the cell door where Li Cefeng was being held and waved his hand to the prison guards to open the door.
Li Cefeng slowly stood up, looking at the face of the visitor, his eyes were full of terrible anger.
"Lu Yuchen! It's you! You ungrateful brute! ”
He never expected that after being arrested, the first person to meet him was actually his cousin, the prodigal Lu Yuchen!
"Li Cefeng, now that you have been reduced to a prisoner, how can you rob me of my things?"
Lu Yuchen snorted coldly, and a dark vulture appeared on his originally delicate face.
"Joke! When did I snatch your stuff! If you behave like this, aren't you afraid that your uncle and aunt will find out? ”
Li Cefeng was a little puzzled, and even more angry.
"On the day of my wedding, you stirred up the situation, and then abducted my woman to raise it with you, aren't you afraid of me telling them?"
"Hmph, don't think that you can be arrogant for long, the Li family, after all, it will be inferior to our Lu family!"
As soon as the words fell, with a wave of his long sleeves, the jailers on both sides got the order, and they stepped forward, and a big iron chain quickly tied Li Cefeng tightly.
"Aren't they official cell bosses?"
Li Cefeng was shocked, this skill could never be possessed by a small cell boss.
"Of course not, if you hadn't made a stalk from it, I would have hugged the beauty a long time ago, and even the Luoshui beggar gang could be included in the bag! Not only did you rob me of my beauty, but you also caused me to be almost killed by my father...... Li Cefeng, everything is because of you! ”
Lu Yuchen let out a low roar, and suddenly an extra long whip appeared in his hand.
"Today, I want to take a good look, how the fourth master of civil and military genius Li was beaten to death by a waste person of mine!"
After speaking, countless whip shadows fell on Li Cefeng's body.
The blood quickly stained the placket red, and Li Cefeng only gritted his teeth fiercely and did not make any sound.
"Master Lu, it's important that we do business, if this person is really killed, it won't be easy to explain......"
An older cell boss came over and whispered a few words beside Lu Yuchen, and Lu Yuchen gradually regained some of his senses.
"Fourth Master Li can know that General Li and Brother Ling intend to do rebellious things, which are detected by the current saint, and the saint regrets Ling Zun's talent, and specially allows the Li clan to provide clues or confess to the same party, then they can be exempted from sitting in the ...... of the nine clans."
It was the elder cell leader who whispered to Lu Yuchen who said this.
He was shorter than Lu Yuchen, and although he was wearing cell clothes, he exuded a sense of nobility around him.
Li Cefeng was stunned by his words.
"Who are you?"
Li Cefeng endured the severe pain in his body and asked with struggle.
"I am Ma Tingyou, the imperial court's envoy, and I was ordered to investigate Ling Zun's case, and I hope that Li Siye will cooperate, so that I can have less pain in my flesh and skin."
"Nonsense! My father was faithful and had no intention of rebellion! My mother still sent me a letter, saying that everything is fine at home in the capital, you Lu Yuchen's dog, Hugh is talking nonsense......"
Li Cefeng glared angrily, his eyes bloodshot.
Ma Tingyou, who was dressed as the cell boss, glanced at him, with a complicated look in his eyes.
"Didn't Fourth Master Li have to wait until the case was closed, and the nine clans sat together before cooperating with the official's investigation?"
"Besides, you have never left Beijing, and your mother suddenly sent you to Luoyang without urging for several months, didn't she already know in advance that this case was going to be exposed, so she kept you away from the capital?"
Ma Tingyou paced around the cramped cell with his hands behind his back, his eyes sweeping over Li Cefeng's face from time to time.
"You guys are really ridiculous, saying that you are the imperial court, do I have to believe it? Even if you really, I wouldn't answer this nonsense. If you want to kill, you have to listen to it! ”
Li Cefeng simply closed his eyes and didn't look at them, nor did he speak.
At this time, he had countless questions in his heart, but he didn't dare to think about it, let alone ask the group of people in front of him.
"Cousin, I advise you to tell everything you know, long live the lord today, Hong En is mighty, maybe you won't anger our loyal and good Lu family, but if you can make meritorious contributions, you will have a chance not to be beheaded!"
Listening to the conversation between Ma Tingyou and Li Cefeng, Lu Yuchen felt a lot happier in his heart, and he believed that if he stimulated Li Cefeng again at this time, he would be more comfortable.
Li Cefeng endured the severe pain in his body and asked with struggle.
